iONEY MARKET AND commsßclAL INTELLIGENCE, CITY, TWELVE O'CLOCK There is a very small demand for discount accommoda• thin in the general money market this morning, and the supply of capital being abundant, brokers are evincing a disposition to negotiate bankers' acceptances at rates a fraction below the (facial minimum of 9 per Cant. There is a much more cheerful feeling everywhere, and should the next Bank return prove favourable, we may expect to witness a return of confidence in financial circles. Since Monday last the imports of specie have amounted to £1.51,000, and the exports to £207,600. The stoppage has been announced of Messrs. Simpson and Co., merchants and insurance bankers, of Gracechurch street, but their liabilities are stated to be very small. A meeting of the creditors of Mr. Aaron Salomons, of 01 I Change, has been fixed for Tuesday next. There was no material alteration is the foreign exchanges yesterday afternoon. The bullion operations at the Bank yesterday comprised the influx of £104,000 in bar gold, and the withdrawal of 60,000 sovereigns fcr transmission to the Brazils by the French packet on Monday. Tho Northern Assam Tea Company has been introduced far a capital of £200,000 is 20,000 shares, of which 15,000 are to be first issued. It is not intended to call up more than £1 lOs per share for 12 months. It is intended to purchase twelve valuable tea estates, situated in Northern Assam, on the south side of the Brahmapootra River, at distances varying from two and a half to ten miles from Dibrooghur, the principal shipping port of Upper Assam. These, estates are in close proxim 7 ty to those of the Assam and Upper Assam Companies, and are all situated on the Great Trunk Road of Assam, with direct steam communication with Calcutta. The estates comprise fully 8,000 acres, of Which 500 acres are already planted in tea gardens, 180 acres being of three years' growth, 170 of ono and two Years', and 150 just planted. The vendor has substantially guaranteed to the directors a minimum dividend of ten per Cent. on the paid-up capital during the first three years; but from the estimates of produce and expenses, which have been carefully examined, the directors state they are justified in anticipating after the first year larger dividends. The purchase money is fixed at £54,000, payable £7,000 in cash, and the residue by four annual instalments, commenc ing in January, 1868, with interest at five per cent. The `Vendor will pay all the expenses incidental to the formation up to the allotment of shares. The list of applications for shares will close on the 31st inst., and it is understood that nearly the whole number to be allotted have been sub, scribed. Two o'CLo cK, At the Pads Bourse to-day, according to neuter's tele gram, the 3 per Cent. Rentes were quoted Glf 92c. Rather firm. The English Stock Market opened with a very firm ap pearance, and a rise of fully A per cent. speedily occurred; but upon a pressure of sales to realise profits obtained by Purchases at the recent low range of quotations, a reaction ensued, and Consols are 884 for money, and 89 exactly for the account, or the same as on the previous afternoon.

Mr Hughes said—l took the business in 1862. My father-in-law never interfered. I have been unfortunate, and a number of my creditors have signed a deed of corn 821 position. Cross-exanained—Everybody I bought of knew the busi• ness was mine only. Although my father-in-law has ob jected to my using his name, I have accepted bills with the name of " S. D. Ewins and C 0.," and kept that name upon the door. Mr James—But there was Ewing and Hughes at the side. Who was the Ewins, and who was the Hughes ? Witness—l was both. (Laughter.) lir Joyce then urged that on this evidence defendant was not liable. A r..an could not be made liable because his name was kept over his door against his will. Mr James insisted that defendant was liable if he allowed his name to be used in the manner described. No man had a right to use the name of another against his will, and if defendant allowed Hughes to do it he must take the con sequences. Business don, 1001 100 f i Irll 1 His Lordship, in summing up to the jury, said the first question was who was trusted by the plaintiff, and in look ing at this point they must also consider the mode in which the credit had been given. If thejury thought that defend. ant had allowed his name to be used in such a manner as to induce the creditors to believe him to bo a partner, then he was liable. If ho did not, and the name had only been kept up over the door as that of an old established firm, the customers knowing that he was not in it, then the verdict would be for defendant. The Jury, after a brief consultation, found for the plaintiff. COURT OF BANKRUPTCY. (Before Mr Commissioner Winslow as Commissicner.) IN RE LLOYD.-JUDGMENT. This bankrupt was described as a captain in the army , residing at Pimlico and a t St P ancras , an d app l ied for his release from custody. The bankrupt had obtained his order of discharge, but was still detained in custody at the suit of Mr Jones, Regent-street, for costs in an action, and for the detaining creditor it was contended that the order of discharge did not operate as a return against the creditors' present claim, which was for costs in an action, judgment not having been obtained until after the adjudication in bankruptcy, and the creditor had only been admitted to prove for the amount of the debt. His Honour now gave judgment, deciding that the order of discharge absolved the bankrupt from the costs, as well as the debt, for which the action had been brought, Tho order of release was then tire issued. IN RE EASTCOTT. This bankrupt was described as a mine proprietor, and had been a director of several mining companies, late of King's-road, B tll's-pond-road, and he now applied for his release from custody. The debts amount to £1,102, and no assets, the bankrupt applying in forma pauperis, IN RE JONES. The bankrupt was described as of Mellon-street, Dorset equare, lodging-house keeper, and this was a meeting for last examination, which had been adjourned for goods, cash, and deficiency account, and to answer requisitions by the creditors. Mr Bradleugh opposed on the ground that the accounts were still unsatisfactory. The bankrupt had put down the Mercantile Union and Investment S niety as creditors for £1,500, holding security to the extent of £l,OOO, but he had not given any account of the value of the freehold and leasehold property given up as security, and furniture sold under a bill of sale. Bankrupt had set down a number of accommodation bills, which in fact had been given to loan societies, in one case for £5O as security for £25. His Honour asked the bankrupt whether he intended to swear to those accounts, The bankrupt said he had given a bond for £1,500 to the Mercantile Union, and thought himself liable, as the re payments of £l,OOO borrowed was to 2xtend over 10 years. His Honour adjourned the case for further accounts. MARKETS—This Day. COVENT GARDEN. Moderate supplies of fruit and vegetables are on sale hero to-day.

LAW INTELLIGENCE—This Day. LORD MAYOR'S COURT. (Before the Common Sergeant and a Jury). THE LAW OP LIAIIITITY-SINGULAR. ♦ND IMPORTANT CASE-NORMAN V. EWINS. This was an action to recover £34 48 4d for goods sold and delivered, and defendant pleaded never indebted. Mr Henry James (instructed by Mr Lloyd) appeared for the plaintiff; Mr S. Joyce (instructed by Mr Voules) re presenting defendant. The court was crowded by a number of persons interested in the result of the proceedings, a large sum of money being at stake. Mr James having briefly opened the case, called a wit ness in the service of the plaintiff, who deposed that he re ceived an order from S. D. Ewins and Co., Ave Maria lane, and had satisfactory references to well-known firms. Cross -examined—I have not seen a Mr Hughes, but heard that a number of persons have signed a composition deed. Mr Stevens said he had been to Ava Marh-lano, Saw the title S. D. Ewing and Co. over the door, and Ewita and Hug - hes on the side post. Mr Crowther (in the absence of Moad and Powell), de• posed that he had ncv.r received a circular notifying that Mr Ewins had retired from the firm, nor did defendan mention to witness that he had done so. Cross -examined—I had a conversation with Mr Powell in presence of defendant, and said I was to be called to prove that he was a partner. Mr Powell made the remark, " I thought you told me he :was not in the firm." Other witnesses deposed to the name being over the door, and to the general belief that Mr Ewins was a partner, Mr Joyce, on the part of defendant, called his client, who said—l had carried on business for many years as a whole sale stationer at Ave Maria-lane. Hughes is my son-in-law. I left the business in 1862, and Hughes took it. My name was over the door. I had a circular printed when I loft, but Ido not remember sending it out. My boy delivered it to my customers. I have not had one shilling out of the business since I left, and I objected to my name being up. If Hughes was successful I was to have £2 per week out of the business. I never authorised him to receipt a bill of exchange in my name. Cross•examined—l did not take my name down, because I did not think there was any harm in leavitg it up. All customers knew I had left the business. The Solicitor-General at Plymouth. On Thursday evening the Solicitor-General, Sir Robt. P. Collier, M.P., and Walter Morrison, Esq., M.P.,in accord ance with the annual custom, met their constituents at the Plymouth Mechanics' Institute, for the purpose of rendering an account of their stewardship during the last session of Parliament. The attendance was exceedingly large, the place being literally crammed from floor to ceiling. David Derry, Esq , a veteran in the Liberal cause, presided. The SOLICITOR GENERAL, on rising to address the meeting, was received with tremendous cheering. After th 3 cheering had subsided ho said—Mr Chairman and gen tlemen, allow me to thank you once again for responding to my invitation to meet me, and I may add, allow me to thank you for the extremely kind and flittering reception you have given me. Gentl , 'lnn, I address yen now, fur th 3 second time, in a somewhat new character. Formerly I addressed you as your representative—not indeed as your representative only, but the representative of all England— (eear)—as every member of Parliament ought to be— (hear)—but upon this occasion, es upon a former one, I address you as holding a subordinate, but at the same time an important and responsible office under her Majesty's Government. (Hear,) Gentlemen, that you do not think me wrong in accepti ng th at office, you test ifi e d b y unani mously re-electing me; and I shall not forget the ex tremely kind and flatterin g manner in which I was received by my constitutents, and I shall not forget, not merely the kindness of my friends,but the courtesy of my political op ponents—(hear, hear)—and I am induced to hope, gentle men—to hope and believe —that although among my con stituents and fellow-townsmen I may have political oppo nents—as of course I have—yet I have no personal enemies. Now, gentlemen, I trust that the manner in which I have performed the duties of my office has not been such as to forfeit your confidence. The present times have been pecu liarly trying times for the law efficers of the Crown. A greater amount of labour, and a greater amount of respon sibility, has been thrown upon us than usual, and that greater amount of labour and responsibility has chiefly arisen from the American war. The American war has given rise to questions of very great importance—to inter national questions of the highest importance—some of them indeed governed by authorities, but others for which lawyers have searched the precedents and searched the books iu vain, A great number of new questions have arisen which could be determined only by a reference to the general prin ciples of international law, and I may add, to the general principles of common sense and of justice, on which all laws ought to be founded. (Applause.) Gentlemen, under these circumstances we have done our best to give that advice to the Crown which we deemed consistent with law. You are aware we are not consulted on questions merely of poliey— we are consulted only on questions of law. Now, I believe the whole country approves of the determination of her Majesty's Government to maintain a strict neutrality be tween the two belligerents. (Cheers ) But, gentlemen, it is one thing to say that you will be neutral—it is another to act with perfect neutrality, and in steering a neutral course you have to navigate between a number of rocks and quick sands. (Hear, hear.) There is a third more difficult thing still, and that is, so to act that you shall not be accused by either party of a want of neutrality; and that I venture to say is impossible—(hear, hear)—for each belligerent, and its more eager partisans, regard all questions which arise from a totally different point of view; and in fact that nen , trality which each belligerent really desires, is partiality to itself. (Hear, and a laugh) It is that sort of Irish reci procity which is stated to be all on one side. (Laughter.) Now, I think it is some testimony to the real neutrality of the Government that we have been complained of by both sides ; we expected that would be the case, for if we were really neutral that is almost unavoidable. Now, gentle men, you are aware that in most of the great wars which have desolated the world in modern times, England, unfortunately for herself, has been a belligerent. In this, the greatest and perhaps the most desolating of all, wo occupy the com paratively novel position of neutrale—(hear, hear)—and I think you will all agree that it becomes us, as a great nation, now we are neutrals, to submit to those rules which we laid down when we were belligerents; for nothing would be more unworthy of us—nothing would tend more to the dis repute of this nation among the nations of the world—if it could be stated that we laid down different rules and laws, according to the extent of our position —on one occasion being neutrals, and on another belligerents. (Hear, hear.) Therefore, to protect onr belligerent rights, we laid down certain rules, which no doubt to some extent threw a burden upon neutrals. That burden which we impose upon others it is our duty that ourselves should bear—(hear. hear)—and upon efvr th ybo a d t y p w ri i n ll e a ip e l k e n —a owandandjumsytisceelwf have hich principleled g e --my of colleaguefairn fair ness given all the advice we have given to her Majesty's Go. ♦ernment ; and I may say this on behalf of my colleague and myself,—that, although I am not presumptuous enough to suppose that we have been always in the right, this I will assert—that wo have viewed every question which came before us in an impartial and judicious spirit, and determined to do to the best of our judgment—(hear, hear)—without allowing ourselves t) be influenced by sym• pathy fur either belligerent, or partiality with the weaker for fear of the stronger. (Hear, hear.) But where we have had reason to think that the Federal Government have violated international law—we have invariably thought it our duty to remonstrate and to require redress. (Hear.) Gentlemen, I think it but fair and proper for me to say that as far as the decisions of the American Prize Courts are concerned, I think we have no great ground of complaint. (Hear, hear.) Ido not say we have no cause of complaint, but I will not now dwell upon the subject. I may observe, perhaps, in passing, that unquestionably I think we have a ground of complaint in this :—that a number of Irishmen and other persons emigrating from the shores of Ireland and of England, on th e i r arr i va l at N ew Y or k h ave b een en- trapped into:enlisting. in the armies by most unwarrantable means—those means being employed, no doubt, by the subordinate officers—l do not say by the responsible officers —of the Americas Government. (Hear, hear.) But I pass that by, and I do not mean to dwell upon it,, but it gives me satisfaction, and I think it is fair to state, that the decisions of their prize courts have been, on the whole, such as we have no great reason to complain of. The cases have been fairly argued by counsel on both sides, and the American judges have paid as much respect to the decisions of our courts as to the decisions of their own; and, although I do not commit myself to agree with every proposition of inter., national law which has been laid down, or to the view of the facts always adopt e d b y the courts, I think it fair and right to say that, upon th e whole, the judgments of the American Priz3 Courts appear t o h ave been well considered, and de livered with a desire to do justice. (Hear, hear, and great applause.) Gentlemen, I think you will say that wo have done right in advising her Majesty's Government to enforce the Foreign Enlistment Act. That is a statute passed, as the preamble recites, "for the purpose of enabling his Ma jesty the bettor to preserve the peace and tranquillity of this country," than which what object can be more beneficial to the whole community ? It is true that that statute is not very carefully drawn. It has been somewhere stated that you may easily sail a fleet of ships through it—(a laugh)— but it is a statute passed for the benefit of all classes, and more especially for the trading classes, and one which it is, I think, the duty of the ,Government to enforce. Years ago, it has been said that this is a statute which bears hardly upon the trading :classes of this country. I emphatically deny it—(hoar)—and I will call as my wit ness Mr Baring, one of the leaders of tho Conservative party, and, as you are aware, a man above all others who is entitled to speak en behalf of the great commercial classes of this country. Upon its being stated in the House of Commons that the Foreign Enlistment Act was a hard statute upon traders—that it was a bad thing for us to seize the steam rams, and to prevent our ports being made the arsenals of ono of the belligerents—Mr Baring got up i and in the most forcible manner showed that it is the preserve tion of peace which is, above all things, conduci ve t o the real prosperity of the commercial classes—(applause)— that_ it is war which the legitimate trader has to fear—(hear)— and ho repudiated with indignant scorn the pretence that commu nity, seized before the trading classes of this country were fairly represented by a few contraband traders whose interests wer e di rectly opposite t(ostphpeinutsee.) G interests eonftltehmeen, thegreat Alexandraa mass of and whose ga in was in the l oss and calamity o f anot h er bcoeuurteryl. (Applause.) a law officer of the Crown, but I altogether approve of the seizure of that vessel. Unfortunately it has happened—and I deeply regret hat the decision in that case turned entirely upon a technical question, so that the real construction of that portion of the Foreign Enlistment Act applicable to the case has not been arrived at. I regret it; it is a reproach to our law. I cannot help thinking, gentlemen, that you will think that her Majesty's Gavern meat were right ,in preventing those steam rams from issuirg from the port of Birkenhead. (Hear, hear.) In that case we have come to a compr om i se, and probably you will think that discretion was the better of valour. Know ing the difficulties by which ono is surrounded in the con• struing of the Foreign Enlistment Act, and the difficulties attending a prosecution of this description, we thought it well to end the matter by buying those vessels. They, therefore, aro now part of the effective navy of this country, instead of issuing from our ports to prey on tho comm rce and po s sibly to in vofolavneautsioinn with whom we are and ch eers. ) I may say that aro at pe at©, the object of the Government has been not to punish or in convenience individuals, but to prevent hostile cruisers issuing from our ports. And let us think of it; can any thing be more i m portant--can there be a more i m p or t an t duty, not only to a friend l y nation with whom wo aro at peace, but to ourselves ? Now adopt the golden rule, and do RS you wish to be done by. (Hear, hear.) Supposing we wore at war with any European Power—(confusion in the gallery, and cries of " Order")—with the Americans if you please—a consummation which I h o p e will be averte d — why our great naval super iority would enable us to close their ports to prevent privateers issuing from them, and would destroy their navy and their c ommerce , b u t if th e weaker nation were permitted to resort to the ports of a neutral country, and to use its ports as e.n arsenal to fit out fl-eats against us, what would b 0 the use of our naval Nupf , riority ? Our naval ,mperioriiy tvould be thrown away, and therefore it concerns us nioro th an i t d oes any o th er Power in the world to entorce the doctrine that the ports of a neutral country shall not be made the arsenals of a foreign nation. (I,oudapplause.) W e h ave a l so thought i 4 our duty to prosecute impartially those who have enlisted in the service of either belligerent, Now, gentlemen, this conduct on the part of tho Government has been made the subject of one or two party attacks in the last session of Parliament, and it appeared to me, I must confess, that there was a small party in the House of Commons who appeared to desire to drive us by taunts and reproaches into a war with America, without at the same time committing them selves to that policy. (Hear, hear.) We were accused of sacrificing the honour of this country; we were accused of acting under the dictation of Mr Adams ; we were accused of tiuokling to the American Government,and every possible taunt and reproach was used for the purpose of inducing us, apparently for the purpose of showing our sparit,to go to war. At the same time, those who uttered these taunts and re proaches carefully abstained from pledging themselves to a warlike policy. ►'hat would have been the result ? Wby if those taunts and reproaches had produced the desired ffdet, and if we had been weak enough to be goaded into a war, these very men would have turned round upon us and denounced us for that very conduct which they themselves endeavoured to force us into. (Loud cheers.) Gentlemen, we did not fall into that trap, and if we had done so wa should have richly deserved the censure which would have been bestowed upon us. (Hear.) Gantleruen, I do not pro pose to address you at more length on the subject of the American war. On that general question I have addressed you once or twice laof3ro. I will not attempt to prophesy. It is very easy to prophesy; and impossible to contradict prophets at the time, but events frequently contradict them after. But I will do no more than express a hope—a hope I most fervently entertain—that out of this horrible strug gle, out of this evil and this suffering, almost unparalleled in the history of the world, Gal in his own time will deduce this great good—the aboliti of slavery, (Hear, hear, and loud applause.) Sir H. P. Collier then proceeded to comment on the foreign policy pursued by the Government during the past session, and defended the course which had been pursued in regard to the proposition for a European Congress and the line taken with respect to the Danish question. He then continued—Well, gentlemen, I have stated all that I mean to say upon the question of foreign policy ; and now a few words upon the subject of domestic legislation. Now I very much regret that the question of church rates appears to have been in so unsatisfactory a condition that no honourable member thought it worth while, or possibly thought it prudent, to challenge the opi nion of the House of Commons upon that subject. My old friend, Sir John Trelawny, who has faithfully served that cause for a number of years, has finally thrown it up, I am afraid, in disgust, and nobody appears inclined to take up his mantle, and certainly it is very much to be regret ted, according to my view, that the House of Cora -1 mons should have—what I cannot help calling it—fallen back on the subject of church rates—(hear)—for two sessions ago you will recollect for the first time we were in a minority on that question, having been accustomed to ma jorities ever since I have been in Parliament. (Hear, hear.) Gentlemen, a great many ingenious suggestions have been made for the purpose of settling this church-rate question by a compromise. Almost everybody that I have met with has some pet plan of compromising this question. I must say there is ono short, simple, and easy way of settling it, and the only way of settling it that I know of is to abolish them altogether. (Loud and prolonged cheering) Gentle men, I will detain you but a vary few minutes longer. Some other questions in which I took a great interest have come before Parliament this session. I may mention shortly the questien of the ballot, on which my opinions are altogether unchanged. You know I have always supported the ballot, and I shall always continue to do so. (Loud cheering.) I will not now enter into a discussion on that question, but will merely remark that one argument in favour of the ballot has not been sufficiently dwe upon—namely, that you would not know the state of the poll until the end of it, and therefore there would be an end of that hanging back in anticipation of remuneration. I am not going to discuss the ballot, gentlemen, that is all I have to say upon it. I would further add, that I thought it my duty to support Mr Baines's' motion for the extension of the suffrage. (Applause.) I have always been of opinion that the suffrage may be safely extended, and I have voted for that measure many years, viz., the £6 household suf- frago. Gentlemen, the £G household suffrage will be adopted when the people of England are determined to have it, and not before. (Hear.) I may mention that I had great pleasure in supporting the bill of Mr Bouverie for enabling dissenters to take degrees and vote at Oxford, tending to liberalise that University. I will not dwell further upon the various measures of the last session, but will merely observe this in conclusion, that notwithstanding the depression of the cotton trade, the prosperity of the country had been such, that the Chancellor of the Exchequer was enabled to take off £2,000,000 from our taxation, in addition to £10,000,000 which he had previously remitted to the people of this country. I was about to say in conclusion, that there are some politicians who may be called habitual detractors of their country. Such are they who affirm that we have lost all our prestige in Europe, that we have sunk to the rank of a second or third-rate Power, or that wo are become a by word and a reproach among nations. Why arc these state ments made ? Simply beeause we have not engaged in nunecessary and Quixotic European wars. (Hear, hear.) I can rememb,z many other detractors of our country. There have been those--and I am old enough to recollect them— who complained that when the Reform bill was passed the sun of England's glory had set for ever. (Hear, hear, and laughter). There were others, who at the passing of any measures of free trade prophesied the irretrievable ruin of this country. I maintain that all these detractors have been, and are, in the wrong. It is because we have ab- stained from unnecessary wars, because we have hus banded our resources, and applied ourselves to the extension of our commerce, that we are as strong and power. ful as we have become. (Cheers.) If any just or necessary cause of war should arise—and there can be no just or neces sary cause of war unless it be the repelling cf aggression, or the vindication of our national honour—l fully believe that we are able to put forth stronger efforts than we have hitherto done, and I believe, moreover, that the continent of Europe know this well. (Cheers.) I further maintain that there never was a time in tho history of this country when we were more powerful, more prosperous, or more respected. (Cheers.) Gentlemen, I have now done. lam to be followed by my very worthy colleague, Mr Morrison, and let me bespeak your kind attention for him. (Cheers Mr Monnisox also addressed the meeting, and at the close of his speech a vote of confidence !./2 the two hon. gentlemen was passed. STATE OF TRADE. MANCHESTER, Oct. 21.—The market for shipping yarns has again been almost a blank. To do busi ness spinners must have accepted much lower prices. The market for these goods closes very dull, with less disposition than ever en the part of buyers to operate. Home trade yarns have been very quiet, and epinners anxious to sell. Prices are ld. to ltd. per lb. lower than on Tuesday. lii cloth also prices have kept tending downwards, and at pretty much the same rate of decline that has taken place from day to day in cotton at Liverpool. Very little bueiness could be effected to-day, and what sales have taken place have been made at very irregular prices, and at a reduction generally from Tuesday's rates. In addition to the failures mentioned in pre vicus reports, several stoppages of manufacturers were mentioned en the Exchange, including one at Manchester, two at Burnley, one at Blackburn (to the amount of about £3,000), and one at Rad.. cliffe. At a meeting of creditors held' this after, noon of Mr. Arthur Heald, a small manufacturer at Kelso, Messrs. Fitzgerald and Co., accountants, stated the liabilities at £6,000 and the assets at £2,539, An offer of 10s. in the pound was made, but the creditors thought 15s. might be obtained, and the meeting wes adjourned. A gloomy and very uneasy feeling appears to prevail generally. Merchants' letters from Liverpool and London, as well as foreign correspondence, are said to read badly and give cause for mach apprehension. Private letters from Rio are said to represent affairs there as much worse than accounts which have as yet found their way into the papers. One letter gives the failure at considerably over 100 in ❑umb;r. CARDIFF, 20th—Many of the shippers of steam coal are unable to get the •requisite supply, owing to the pressing demand from Staffordshire. There is a fair inquiry on export account, but had not the present demand froth Staffordshire existed, it is doubtful whether the trade would have been able to maintain its position as regards prices. The colliers in the Aberdare and Merthyr valleys are fully employed, and it is satisfactory to report that the men continue to work with regularity, and the attempts made to induce them Ito take an activ e part on behalf of the Staffordshire miners have completely failed. In house qualities there is a good business doing, and, with the approach of winter, prices are getting firmer. Coke is in average request. The iron trade retains its vitality, although the export demand has fallen elf to some extent. It , tils are quoted £7 to £7 108 at the works, and bars, £7 5s to £7 12s 6.1. The forest remains at a standstill, and at Aberaman important extensions and alterations are about to b. carried out, NOTTINGHAM, 21st.—At the Exchange■hall 'o day the attendanoo was tolerable, but business was very flat, Spinners tried hard to support late rates, but whero sales were forced lower rates had to be submitted to. The demand for t:o3icry yarns was flat, and prices were Is per bundle lower than last week. Silks very firm, and tending upwards. Brown nets were an exceedingly slow sale, and ther e was not sufficient business dune to test prices. While the steamer Aquila was on her passage from Jersey to Weymouth, on Tuesday, one of the passen gers, a commercial traveller from Bristol, threw himself ovciboard. Ile was, however, saved by a boat from the ete,:mer. SPORTING INTELLIGENCE—This Day. CITY BETTING,—This DAY.

Edited by Captain 0 Donoghue. Prophecies on the Cambridge shire. The fullowing are the final conclusions arrived at by the various sporting writers in the weekly journals : (From Bell's Life.) We adhere to the impression that Gratitude is in danger of having the tables turned upon her by Ackworth or Planet, whilst that Saccharometer's was the best Cambridgeshire performance of the week we are still of opinion, But that Brick strikes us as being so very dangerous, and for a sneaking kindness we have for Bayard and Columba, we should confilently look for the winner among the quartette just named; and, as it is, the Cambridgeshire is so often won by an outsider that it is not bad policy to make a bold plunge among them, which we shall do by looking for the success of SA.CCHAROMETER or PLANET. (From the Sporting Gazette) I consider Gabrielle d'Estrees, Summersi le, Prince Plausible, Brick, Stockinger, Gratitude, Muezzin, and Ackworth the best to back, and I think the preference is due to Blum( and PRINCE PLAUSIBLE, but should the race be destined to fall to an outsider, Columba or Narbonne may effect the coup. (From the Sporting Gazette ) I must choose as my representatives Gratitude, Steck inger, Bacchus, Prince Plausible, and Briok, deciding, as heretofore, for STOCKINGER and GRATITUDE. (From the Era•) We think the old horses the most likely lot to furnish the winner-upon this occasion, as they did the Cesare witch, and the lot we most fancy aro Gratitude, Prince Plausible, Stockinger, Brick, Accident, Saccharoroeter, Columbia, and Trap. These wo shall reduce to a couple, and in taking SACCIIAROMETER and PRINCE PLAUSIBLE, wo trust the same good fortune may attend our selection as for the big race at the Second October Meeting. Gratitude must run to the trent with her weight, but she is only a moderato mare after all, and must play second fiddle to each of our two champions if they be as good as reported. (From the Sunday .Times.) We are bound to take Brick, Prince Plausible, Saccha roraeter, Stockinger, and the best of Lord Westmoreland's lot, to beat the field, and we have the most faith in Thum: and STocKiNcinn, but GRATITUDE must be supported for a place. (From the Field.) The quintette I shall take to beat the field are Gratitude, Brick, Prince Plausible, Stockingez, and the best of Wm. Day's. Reducing them again, I finally settle down upon GRATITUDE and PRINCE PLAUSIBLE as the winner, leav ing William Day's representative, Brick and Stocainger, to be nest. (Fiont the Weekly Times.) I should, in taking a lot, stand on BIUCHBROOM, ACK WORTH, STOCKINGER, and GRATITUDE, giTing the prefe rence to the first and last mentioned. (Fi wiz the Age and Pilot) The conclusion we have arrived at after many hours' meditation on the sulject is that for the winner we are bound to repose our confidence in GRATITUDE. The run ners up we believe will be comprised in Stockinger, Trap, Erin-go-Bragh, Buick, Dr Syntax, and perhaps I‘ltunin, and of this lot for places we have the strongest faith in Trap, Fria-go-Btagh, and Stockinger. PUGILISM. (From Bell's Life.) JENI MACE AND JOE COBURN. The final act in this drama has now been played out. We stated in our last that Coburn had received his £5O, and that we should be prepared on Thursday to hand over Mace's money to himself and Harry Brunton conjointly at our office. On Thursday, at the appointed hour, Mace and his valet, Montague, appeared, and were met by Harry Brunton, and also by several gentlemen who had put down money on Jem's behalf, We had during the week received numerous letters from well known sporting gentlemen, re questing us to hand their money over to Brunton, and on our stating this fact to Mace he expressed a great surprise, saying the money was his; that it had not been found by Brunton; and that unless ho was entrusted with it he would have no chance of getting anything towards his ex penses. He declined signing any joint receipt, and declared unless the money was delivered over to him solely he would leave it in our hands for ever. It was in vain we explained to him that those who had put down the money had done so with a reservation that in the event of no fight it should be returned through Harry Brunton ; he either could not or would not see the point, and insisted on having the money himself to distribute. In this we are bound to add he was mainly lcd by his philosopher, friend, and valet, Montague, and we sincerely believe had he been left to his own devices he would have seen the justice of tha stake being given to Brunton, and would have trusted to him to use his influence in obtaining a sufficient sum out of it to repay him his expenses, and to compensate for his disap• pointment. Several gentlemen present protested against Mace receiving the money. They declared they should never have put down anything unless through Brunten's influence, and to him they looked for a return. All, how ever, said they would be happy to give Jem presents to wards his expenses. dem still would none of it ; he had come to receive his money, and unless he received it per sonally ho would not have it at all. We now informed him that as the money was staked with Brunton on the under• standing that if there was no fight it should be returned, we were abound to abide by that understanding, and that it was our intention to give Brunton the order for it, payable to him end Mace jointly. This did not suit Jew's book. A running fire was opened by himself and his friends, Mon tague, Bunn of Norwich, and others, who declared there was no precedent for such a course, and that they protested against it in tete. As none of these gentry, however, had found ono shilling, their protest was of no avail, and we handed to Harry Brunton the usual order for the money. A warm discussion ensued between the adherents of either side. which was not put an end to until we requested the company to adjourn to some other place, and settle the mat ter between themselves. Shortly after their departure Mon tague reappeared in our office with a legal notice to us, on behalf of Mace. not to part with the money. We were not unprepared for this, being fully alive to the dodges of the gentlemen who brought it, and having shown it to the stake holders, it was destroyed, and the money has been since handed to Brunton alone, who, wo have nu doubt, will do what is right with it, and will return each backer his own again, subject to certain deductions for expenses and towards repaying the £lOO given to Coburn at the last deposit. We should perhaps not have been quite so hasty had it not been for the legal notice, but unsportsmanlike practices we never have and never will recognise, and Mace must therefore take the censequences of his friends' ill adTice. It may be for their good to know that they have no legal claim on us whatever—not Is, has reached us from them—and if they have handed any money to Harry Brun ton, it will be against him they will have to take proceed ings. We do not wish to prejudice Mace in the eyes of his backers and the public—doubtless he has been ill-advised— and this being the case we are willing to overlook a great deal. Brunton has promised to intercede with those gestic men who stood money on his be half, and to render us an ac • count of any sums he may receive for Jen; and ho desires us to intimate that ho will meet several of Mace's Turf backers at Newmarket during the ensuing week, where he will return them their money, and where ho invites Mace to be present at the settling. He adds that as regards the other gentlemen who forwarded money to him fur Mace, he will meet them at his own house, the George end Dragon, Beech- street, Barbican, on Tuesday week, to wind up his accounts. Here also ho will be glad to see to Mace. To those gentlemen who gave their money to Mace, or any other friends, Brunton can only say they must apply to those who received it. He is only accountable to those whose names are on the two lists submitted to us by him and Mace, and from whom we have received letters making Harry responsible. As several comments have been made upon our giving Coburn th•e £lOO for expenses, as there was no fight, we think it right to state that by the articles Coburn was to re ceive £lOO at the last deposit for his expenses, and no word whatever is the.ein contained as b its being returned in case the fight did not comp off. We now take our leave of the whole iSsir, in the hope that this may be the last occasion on Which we may have to refer to such a disagreeable topic: SECOND EDITION. ---- .6 UN OFFICE, HALF -P AST 4 o'CLOCK.

DESPERATE STRUGGLE WITH A TI U?.— George Phillips, aged 19, and Thomas Speed, 18, in the employ of the Midland Railway Company, were brought before Mr Partridge, charged with stealing a quarter chest of tea, weighing 281bs. Daniel Davey, a clever detective officer, No. IG9 11, said that last evening about half past 7 o'clock he was passing along High-street, Whitechapel, in plain clothes, and saw a two-horse van driven by the prisoner Phillips. Speed and another man were standing up in the body of the van, which proceeded along Commercial-street towards Shore ditch. A man in the van was tying up a quarter chest of tea in a coarse old cloth, and after doing so he went and sat along with Phillips on the driving box, leaving the chest of tea in the body of the van. In this way the van proceeded as far as York-street, Shoreditch, where it stopped opposite a public-house, and Phillips and the man on the box got down, and went into the public house, leaving Speed in the van. In three minutes Speed and his companion came out and stood at the tail of the van. Speed then gave the quarter chest of tea (now produced) tied up in a wrapper. He immediately took the man with the tea into custody. Phillips jumped on the driving box, and was turning round the horses and van, when the man he had in custody threw the quar ter chest of tea back into the van. Ho said to the man, " What are you going to do with that tea ? No answer was returned, and the fellow kicked, fought, and plunged violently, and tried to make his escape. He kept fast hold of the fellow with his left hand, and held on to the tail of the van with his right hand. Phillips drove away the van at the rate of seven or eight miles an hour, although he was repeatedly called on to stop. The thief ho had in custody threw himself on the ground and kicked and plunged fear rally. He held him fast and dragged him along, still holding on by the van for half a mile, when ho became completely exhausted, and was obliged to let him go. He then jumped on to the van, and told Phillips to stop, but he would not. On reaching the City-road he met with another policeman, called him to assist, and both prisoners were taken into custody. He also seized the quarter chest of tea which ought not to have been on the van at all. Phillips said ho knew nothing about the tea. Speed made no remark at all. The van was laden with chests of tea, loaf sugar, and casks of brandy, intended for the Midland Counties Railway. Georgo Kemp, porter at the Midland Counties. Railway Goods Station, Rosemary-lane, Whitechapel, said the quarter chest of tea had been stolen from the bank or plat form there, and was intended for 'Wakefield, in Yorkshire. There were nine other quarter chests on the bank. The prisoner's van was loaded with goods at the station. John Walker, Midland Counties Railway agent, at the goods station, Rosemary-lane, said both prisoners were employed by the company—Phillips, as carman, and the other as vanguard. Speed was put into the office of the carman temporarily. Mr Partridge asked Davey if he was likely to arrest the third man, and on his replying in the affirmative, said ho should commit the prisoners for trial on the evidence ho had heard, but they would be brought up Again a week hence fur the completion of the depositions, and by that time he hoped the other thief would be in custody. Ho complimented the constable DAvey for the great tact, courage, and vigilance he had displayed. LONDON GAZETTE--Last Evening, FOREIGN OFFICE, Oct. 11.
